Good morning girls and boys !!!! I got an unexpected day off today and so watched the last 2 days of episodes. I rolled my eyes so hard that I won't be surprised, if by the end of the day, my eyes are dislocated😲
First things first, as I said in my last post here, the only guy I can relate to is Anurag and so I will try to analyze his behavior of the last 2 days. FYI, I am not a psychologist or a psychiatrist, but I like to analyze human behavior as a hobby. So, please take whatever I am saying as my opinion only with a pinch of salt and not a science in itself😃.
I, for one, understood where Anurag may be coming from in the Monday episode. The premise I am working with is that he had been delivered a death blow, the ground from underneath his feet has disappeared for no sane reason and that tends to push people towards insanity. Insanity toh courts mein bhi defendable hain, toh, I am going to take the liberty of cutting him some slack with regards to his behavior and his utterings. Again, I may be missing out on a lot of detail as I don't know much of the back story, I am talking only about what I had watched off and on over the last 2 weeks and these last 2 episodes only. So, how does/should Anurag get out of this rut or rather people around him help him get out of the rut?? For this to happen, he should be able to process, understand and assimilate the infamy that happened to him. Now, how can that happen? I see two options.
1. He gets the complete truth from that Prerna, who I understand wants his salamati ( although I don't see, feel or hear any such intent on her part 😡 ) on why she left him for a guy who is 20yrs her senior. Anurag might rant, rave, curse and agonize over it, but he will have no option but to understand eventually and accept his fate and move on. 2. Prerna continues to stay mum, which is again her choice, but he needs to be given the space and time to process, accept and assimilate the situation in whatever way that makes sense to him. In this scenario, he might find Prerna to be a complete cheater, and decides that he shouldn't waste any more of his precious brain cells on her and moves on. Here, toh, he is not given either the truth or the space to process his angst. The hypocritical Prerna and her husband are constantly in his face, to which he reacts in whatever way his heart wishes. Why can't the respectable husband understand that Prerna may be tortured by memories or moments being in close proximity with a guy whom she was supposed to marry? Why doesn't the loyal wife and greatest friend understand that by being smack in the face of Anurag with her husband and beloved daughter, " her family" as she puts it, is going to rile up and torture Anurag and he will retaliate? I am not justifying retaliation of any sort, but isn't that normal human behavior when you get crushed beyond redemption? What does Anurag got to lose, whichever way he behaves, if you look at it from his side? He already lost everything, and his peace of mind and his sanity. Why doestn't Anurag's sister understand that yelling at her brother to move on is not going to cut it? Why didn't that family take the initiative to take him away, wherever, London, NZ, Australia or Kerala for him to cool off when all the dramatics and histrionics of the world's best husband and father and wife are going on under their roof? Don't they understand that with all those dramatics going on, it is impossible for Anurag to forget and move on ? Unfortunately, Anurag is like that piece of sugarcane crushed in a crushing machine, juiced and repeatedly run through that crushing machine to extract more and more out of him. Where is the peace of mind for him to even sit down, find the ground under his feet, process his disappointment , the deceit of the girl he loved and assimilate that into his daily life? He is put through the wringer day in and day out. So, I understand why he is behaving insanely.
BTW, did I say I like his sister🤗 who is heartbroken to see how devastated her brother is and is just telling him as a third person, an onlooker as to how she sees the whole situation is with Prerna. I think she called her a cheater and that she will handle Anurag just as she is handling " her family" , the husband, daughter, maasi and the wife. I don't understand the word " handle" though. Please, can somebody actually tell me what the sister said? I didn't get the whole conversation apart from calling her a cheater and handling. I like this girl👍🏼, she looks good in the way she is put together. I don't know if she is a dark character or not, but I liked how she is concerned for her brother in the little I saw.
Prerna is a total disgrace👎🏼🤬💔. I don't see anything in that girl as to why Anurag is crazy for her👎🏼. She might as well be a neighbor for whom he is lusting over. That is the behavior I see. I understand that the story is different than what she is portraying, that they were in love at some point. Her expressions are full of contempt, disgust and ridicule for him. Love toh door ki baath hain, I don't even see an iota of care or concern or recognition for him. I wish he sees what I see and that off switch goes of in his head sooner than laterMy whole being crawled out of my skin as I heard her writing her lists of " return gifts, party favors........" and other gibberish while the guy is being shattered to smithereens. I agree, that she doesn't want to encourage the guy after whatever nasty decision she took, but how do you justify her behavior towards him to her own conscience? Toh, kuch toh agony honi chahiyein naa? Where is the agony, that sensitivity to a fellow human being who is suffering to no end and doesn't understand where anything had gone wrong?
That Bajaaj guy toh, don't even get me started😡🤬, please. One of my idiosyncrasies is that I hate when people talk rhetoric, I just can't tolerate that. He starts off with his unintelligible banter of justice, silence, injustice and other nonsense. Who cares what he says when his actions are deafening and say otherwise? Do the writers seriously believe that people in this era would be impressed by a supposedly rich guy who gloats about his ability to buy off people and facilities and that a professional is afraid of that money's power? That beating on his chest of his abilities was seriously offensive to me🤬Doctor saab, aap professional hain na, koi money ka gambler nahin Bajaaj jaise, so why is he freaking afraid of his livelihood about a hypothetical situation? !So the MIL is mad at him for buying a cheap rope and the judge buys that is the root of rivalry😡This producer ridicules all professions to make her choice protagonists into "God". Seems like the whole sasural has jumped ship towards the elderly SIL/BIL or whatever he is and are looking at him with folded hands and tears in their eyes. Bahut Khoob👍🏼
The actor portraying Anurag was phenomenal👍🏼 in the last part of today's episode. His emotions changing from happiness that his Veena aunty is found to be not guilty, eagerly wanting to share in that family's happiness to shock, pain, hurt, sense of betrayal as he saw the infamy unfolding in front of him, not only Prerna but the entire family jumping ship is excellently portrayed.👍🏼You just hope that he sees the objectivity of this situation and identifies that Prerna is simply a lost cause sooner than later. But, the writers won't give him that dignity. If it were a real life situation, a person like this might turn to other distractions when such a devastation strikes, you just hope here that he doesn't engage with other people/women to make him be the hated one and the hypocritical Bajaaj takes the moral high ground and strategically drop in suggestive low blows such as " I can't believe he can go sooo low or that is total injustice to the love or some other nonsense"🤬Hesurely preaches the sermon. And Prerna silently agrees to those hypocritical statements👏Lage raho dono husband and wife😡
Sorry, if this came out too harsh. When something irritates me, I become exuberant. Thanks for putting up with my 10 pages of rant. Any thoughts or opinions are welcome ! Disclaimer from my side, this is my opinion only in the situation as I see it, not scientific facts.😳
Have a great day !!!
DT Note: few statements from the topic have been edited out by the DT, for it's crossing the line of criticism and bashing and name calling characters which are insinuating . In your exuberance , please do NOT forget that the forum has specific rules to cater to
out if the three Anurag is the only relatable character in the show... otherwise the makers are busy in whitewashing someone n degrading someone to not know wat level😆
